    Hello Guys,

    How can I break oversized PST file based on year without any information loss? Due to this large size issue I can’t even manage my works. I am in a trouble. Can anyone help me to get perfect solutions to overcome this situation?

    Hello,
    I can help you because once I faced this same situation to split PST data files, that time I have used the Import & Export method t solve my problem. You can use the following steps to proceed with this:

    Step 1: Run Outlook and make a new PST file.
    Step 2: Select “File”–> “More items”–> “Outlook Data File”.
    Step 3: Search storage location and provide name to the new file then click “OK”.
    Step 4: Select the options “File”–> “Open”–> “Import”–> “Export”.
    Step 5: choose “Outlook Data File” the click “Next” and select the folder to export from.
    Step 6: Click “Browse” to select the file and hit “OK” from the Open Outlook Data Files window.
    Step 7: Finally click on “Finish” then the process will get started.

    Thanks & Regards

    Hai Lincoln Burrows,

    To split PST file, you can use another one method that is move PST file items by move to folders feature in Outlook. To try this approach follow the steps that are given below:

    Step 1: Launch MS Outlook and click on “New Items”-> “More Items”-> “Outlook Data File”.
    Step 2: Provide one name to the new Outlook file from the Create or Open Outlook Data File window and click “OK”.
    Step 3: The new file will be listed now click on “Move” and click “Copy to Folder”.
    Step 4: Select the new file into which you want to copy the folder from “Copy Items” dialog box and click on “OK”.

    Thanks

    Hello Guys,

    Thanks for your suggestion. The above two methods are good in case of mailbox content in PST is less. But I have thousands of email messages so it will definitely consume large time. So, can you suggest any other easy method to perform the splitting process without any hurdle?

    Hai,

    I can help you. I know about one third party utility that is SysTools Split PST. It can split PST file Outlook 2007 without any data loss and other problems. It provides option to divide large PST file based on size, date, year or folder. To know more about the tool and its working you can download its demo version without any price.

    Thanks & Regards
